In Isaiah, chapter forty-one, verses ten through eleven, “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.” New Testament believers have also become the chosen servants of God, as in Ephesians thirteen, verse twelve, and First Peter two, verse nine, respectively. We can therefore claim the promises of these verses for ourselves.
We must not fear other humans, because God is with us, as in Isaiah forty, verse nine, chapter forty-three, verses two, and five, Genesis fifteen, verse one, and Acts eighteen, verses nine to ten: To impart the grace and strength needed to face all of the circumstances of life; to help us through times of crises as our source of peace; and to sustain us to be our advocate.
The faithful, the humble, the obedient, and loving servants of God will encounter those who oppose the godly. The enemy will use these unbelievers, as well as the unfaithful, proud, disobedient, and unloving servants, to bring down those believers who serve God and uphold His holy Word within their hearts.
Believers must “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour,” as in First Peter five, verse eight. The devil will attempt to use the big things or the little things, the stuff that might seem insignificant, to get to the believer to make them get upset or mad, to take them off course from following the Lord. Saints of God must be aware.
